About the event
Day 2 brings together the most critical environmental, energy, and governance challenges facing the mining sector in 2026, focusing on how organisations secure essential resources, adapt to energy transition pressures, and meet rapidly evolving ESG expectations.
The program is structured across three interconnected streams—water security, energy transition, and ESG and carbon innovation—reflecting the full lifecycle of risk, resilience, and transformation in modern mining operations.
The day opens with an official Ministerial Address from the Hon Don Punch MLA, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs; Water; Climate Resilience; South West, setting the strategic direction for Western Australia’s water future and reinforcing the importance of climate resilience, innovation, and long-term resource stewardship.
Session 1: Water & Climate Resilience
The morning program focuses on water as a foundational enabler of mining operations, examining how legal, technical, and environmental frameworks are evolving in response to a drying climate and increasing regulatory complexity.
